Finding the Right barware for You

Whether it’s streamlined or sophisticated, a bar area is always a welcoming feature in any home interior. A cheery well-made drink with friends and family has the potential to yield some unforgettable moments alongside those that aren’t easily remembered. And the only way to conjure that exemplary cordial is by putting the proper antique, new or vintage barware to work.

Essential barware equipment ranges from sterling-silver barspoons for mixing your cocktails in tall collins glasses to jiggers, shakers and strainers that allow you to whip up martinis and old-fashioneds.

From a design standpoint, some barware, such as our array of Art Deco glass whiskey sets or mid-century modern silver-banded tumblers crafted by Dorothy Thorpe, can help position your bar as a bold and attractive centerpiece to a room. At the very least, a carefully curated collection of barware can elevate with subtlety the bar’s nearby fixtures, as a handcrafted crystal decanter might do for your vintage 1960s bar cart.

As cocktail hour draws near, find inspiration in our gorgeous gallery of home bars in locales ranging from London to New York to San Francisco, and browse the exquisite selection of antique, new and vintage barware and glassware on 1stDibs.

Questions About Meriden Cocktail Shaker
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021
    There are many brands of cocktail shakers – the best cocktail shaker is a matter of preference. However, the Boston shaker is considered to be the best cocktail shaker because of its large capacity and efficiency. You can use it for shaking or stirring a cocktail. As it's a multi-tasker, it is very popular. Shop a variety of antique cocktail shakers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    A Parisian cocktail shaker is a shaker that has a bottom and a removable top. In this way, the design is similar to that of a cobbler shaker. However, the Parisian shaker doesn’t have the strainer found in most cobblers. Shop a range of cocktail shakers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    There are many types of cocktail shakers, but the two most common are the Boston shaker and the Cobbler shaker.
